3 appointed to SMMUSD financial oversight committee BY JEFFREY I. GOODMAN Daily Press Staff Writer
CITYWIDE Three vacancies on the
Santa Monica-Malibu school district’s Financial Oversight Committee were filled when the Board of Education approved recommendations during its March 19 meeting in Malibu. Seth Jacobson, Marc LevisFitzgerald and Debbie Mulvaney will join an 11-member committee whose responsibilities include reviewing financially significant issues prior to board action and creating reader-friendly budget information to educate the public on district finances. Two vacancies on the finance committee were created following the election of Craig Foster to the school board and the appointment of Peter Lippman to the Personnel Commission. A third vacancy resulted from the resignation of DeAndre Parks. The FOC received eight applications following the announcement of the openings, according to a district report. Committee members asked the board to take action on all three vacancies to ensure a full roster for their April 16 meeting. Jacobson, a public policy advisor and former school board candidate who has advocated for splitting the SMMUSD into two separate districts, has served on the district’s Superintendent Advisory Committee. He had a stint on the City of Santa Monica Housing Commission and also served as PTA vice president at Point Dume Marine Science Elementary School

Garcetti staffer appointed to Planning Commission BY DAVID MARK SIMPSON Daily Press Staff Writer
CITY HALL In a surprise turn early Wednesday morning, City Council appointed urban planner and Los Angeles mayor staffer Carter Rubin to a vacant Planning Commission seat. The seat has been vacant since
Sue Himmelrich left the commission for council in November. The appointment expires in June. Mayor Pro Tempore Tony Vazquez was the swing vote and told the Daily Press that — after his nominee wasn’t getting traction — he went with Rubin, who is 28 years old, in order to get some young blood on the commission.
Rubin currently serves as a member of the Housing Commission. He’s also on the board of Santa Monica Next and Southern California Streets Initiative, which advocate for public transportation and, oftentimes, development projects. Rubin is a program manager of
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti’s Great Streets Initiative. Rubin had initial support from council members Terry O’Day, Pam O’Connor, and Gleam Davis, who tend to support development more frequently than the other four members. SEE PLANNING PAGE 7

Airport going to look like on July 1? Probably pretty similar to how it’ll look on June 30. A key agreement between City Hall and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) expires between those dates but City Council voted unanimously early Wednesday morning to move forward cautiously. More than 125 members of the public signed up to speak and council heard more than three hours of public testimony, which kicked off with more pro-airport speakers and then shifted toward more anti-airport neighbors. Council rejected a recommendation from city attorneys that they consider a 2016 ballot meas-

Re: YWCA column Editor:
Loved this writing. Amazingly all inclusive, excepting no one, stigmatizing no one. Yes. as women we are amazing, astounding, phenomenal. The important thing to know & remember for me — educate and inform ourselves — constantly. During my research I found that Rosa Parks is the only female whose body was allowed to lie in state in the rotunda. Do you know why? Love this writing. Positive. Affirmative. Don’t see a lot of that in Santa Monica, especially from women.

Israel has been much in the news of late and Laemmle Theatres inaugurates its Anniversary Classics series with a screening of Otto Preminger’s “Exodus.” This marks the film’s 55th anniversary. This powerful film about the founding of Israel was based on Leon Uris’s best-selling novel. Eva Marie Saint, who stars alongside the late Paul Newman, will be in attendance and join in a pre-screening Q&A discussion with “Reel Talk” host Stephen Farber. Nominated for three Academy Awards in 1960, Exodus won the Oscar for Ernest Gold’s memorable
score. Otto Preminger’s lavish production, with a screenplay by formerly blacklisted writer Dalton Trumbo, was filmed on location with an all-star cast headed by Paul Newman, Eva Marie Saint, Sal Mineo, Jill Haworth, Peter Lawford, Ralph Richardson, and Lee J. Cobb. Given the ongoing tensions in the Middle East today, the film is still powerfully timely. Tickets are $13, and the screening takes place at Laemmle’s Royal Theatre in West L.A. on March 31 at 7 p.m. More info at www.laemmle.com/classics or call (310) 478-3836. NIN’S INFLUENCE

City Garage Theatre has been producing innovative, award-winning theater in Santa Monica for the past 28 years. Founded by artistic director Frédérique Michel and pro-
ducing director Charles Duncombe, they create and present original works that explore contemporary ideas and issues in a distinctive, strongly physical, highly visual, multi-disciplinary style. On April 3, City Garage will premiere its production of “Break of Noon” by edgy contemporary playwright, Neil LaBute. What if God told you to be a better person but the world wouldn’t allow it? Such is Joe Smith’s dilemma. He’s a run-of-the-mill white-collar businessman who survives an office shooting and is subsequently touched by what he believes to be a divine vision. His journey toward personal enlightenment-past greed and lust and the other deadly sins-is, by turns, tense, hilarious, profane, and heartbreaking. City Garage is located at Bergamot Art Station. Performances take place Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and on April 26, there’s a post-matinee Q&A with the director, producer and cast. The play runs through May 24. City Garage is also hosting Support Women Artists Now Day from 12 to 6 p.m. this Saturday. Admission is free, and the day’s events include readings of short plays written and directed by women, as well as two sessions of “Micro-Reads” (open to all women writers in attendance) and opportunities for theater makers (of all genders) to network and find future collaborators: women artists working in Los Angeles.

Is This Comic Going to be Worth Money? ULTRON IS AN EVIL ROBOT BENT ON THE destruction of humanity.
Which, frankly, makes him a real bummer at parties. But it makes him a huge hit in your bank account. One of the most common questions we get at HiDeHo Comics is “What comics should I get as an investment?” Our answer almost always comes down to “Who’s in the next big Marvel movie?” And right now, the answer is Ultron, Ant-Man, and Black Panther. Marvel is releasing Avengers 2: Age of Ultron on May 1. The main villain, Ultron, first appeared in comics in Avengers 54 and 55. According to comichron.com the print run of Avengers that year was 269,234 per issue. Avengers #53 professionally graded at 9.4 (A near perfect grade) recently sold for $269.99. Avengers #55, the first real appearance of Ultron sold in the same grade for $992.70. The supply for
both books is essentially the same, yet Avengers #55 is worth 300 percent more because it has the first appearance of the new big bad guy in the Marvel universe. Later this year, the movie AntMan comes out from Marvel. A few characters have ended up with the Ant-Man moniker - this movie stars Paul Rudd as Scott Lang in the AntMan role. Lang’s first appearance in comics is Avengers 181 - recently selling for over $500 in 9.8 condition. The issue before, #180, holds no special significance and recently sold for $4.25. The point here is how much demand changes the value of comics. Old comics are good. Old comics that have a first appearance in them are great. But it isn’t just that first appearances are more valuable than the issues prior. It is important to note just how much those characters
appearing in a Marvel movie skyrockets their price tag. Five years ago Rocket Raccoon was a C-List character at best. He made relatively few appearances in his comic career and was considered kind of a joke. But ask any 10 year old (or grown up!) now and they’ll tell you that Rocket is the coolest member of the Guardians of the Galaxy. What I can tell you is that five years ago, Rocket Raccoon’s first appearance (Incredible Hulk #271) sold for one dollar or less. Today, you can click over on eBay and see that same issue has sold for $600. Can you name any stocks that have grown 60,000 percent in five years? Even just the announcement of a movie is enough to move the financial needle! Black Panther first appeared in Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s legendary Fantastic Four run at issue #52. It has always been a moderately valuable comic. I had a
copy that was rather beat up (Probably a 4 out of 10 on the grading scale.) I had it sitting in my office on a stack of other comics I had recently purchased. Then Marvel made an announcement that Black Panther would be getting his own film, to be released November 2017. The next day I got a call from another comic book dealer, and he needed that first appearance bad. I was expecting to get maybe $50 for that book - before the movie announcement. The other comic book dealer offered me $250 - which he has since sold for even more. In one night Marvel Studios increased the value of that comic 400 percent So when people ask me where to invest - the safe answer is always “What is Marvel going to do next?” To learn more about all things comic books, visit Hi De Ho Comics, 1431 Lincoln Blvd., in Santa Monica.

approval of the massive Hines Development project through our constitutional right of referendum. When the City Council originally approved the massive Hines Development Project, they claimed that it met the policy goals and objectives of the LUCE. A policy document that falsely claimed to protect Santa Monica and its’ residents. Again, our elected officials are now telling us that the ZOU will protect Santa Monica. That the ZOU is good for residents. That the ZOU is better than the existing zoning code. That the ZOU will limit development. That the ZOU can be fixed in just two days. They were wrong about Hines and they are wrong about the ZOU. They are both Too Big, Too Much, Too Tall and don’t belong in Santa Monica. Get ready and don’t be fooled! On April 14th and 15th, in the final hours of this seven year process, the Council may throw a bone to residents as they witness a sea of residents oppose their imminent approval of the ZOU and the final codification of the failed policies of the LUCE. Surely, in their two days of deliberations, they may remove a couple of proposed Activity Centers on Wilshire Boulevard and even slightly reduce proposed heights and densities across a portion of Wilshire Boulevard or Pico Boulevard. But these so called “fixes” and “politicking” by our elected officials, claiming to listen to residents in the final hours, just won’t cut the mustard. It will be too little, too late. When government fails, it becomes time for individuals to act. And Residocracy is currently in the process of doing just that. Residocracy will soon unveil a revolutionary act to take back control of our city once and for all. It’s time for residents to provide the “real” fix. It’s time for special interests to take the back seat. It’s time that residents control the future of Santa Monica. It’s time that the residents’ vision of the future of our city is unveiled. Please watch for us as Residocracy prepares for the release of our revolutionary “Resident Petition to Protect Santa Monica.” All of us — together — proved once before that the power to protect our interests lies only with us, the residents. Only residents can protect and preserve Santa Monica for ourselves, for our children, and for the future. Government has failed and the time for individual action is now! Are you with us? Please send comments to armen@residocracy.org

time for individuals to act. Our local government has failed the residents of Santa Monica. The time for action is now! The planning commission last week finalized two years of deliberations on the Zoning Ordinance Update (ZOU). The ZOU, when approved by our City Council, will codify the failed Land Use and Circulation Element (LUCE) policy document that allows for massive over-development. In 2010, the LUCE promised to protect Santa Monica and yet we have already seen the massive developments it has incentivized and those that are in the pipeline. The LUCE is the shaky foundation of the ZOU and they both bring massive developments and increased traffic congestion to our beach town. They are just too big, too much, and too tall and do not belong in Santa Monica. The time for individuals to Act is now! Since 2007, the LUCE and the ZOU process have been heavily controlled and influenced by special interests. Residents have been ignored, cast aside, marginalized, and even ridiculed in the seven plus years of public input and debate that has shaped the ZOU. The Planning Commission released the draft ZOU on November 12, 2013. A “redline” edit was released in October 2014 followed by a “greenline” edit. The final product, the “brownline” ZOU, is now being forwarded to City Council - ready to be flushed by residents. When government fails, it becomes time for individuals to act — the guiding principle of Residocracy. Our City Council has scheduled just two days (April 14th and 15th at City Council Chambers) to review, opine, and make modifications to the ZOU. In the final hours of the imminent release of an explosion of density and traffic congestion slated to affect Santa Monica for generations to come, some of our elected officials are now shifting the focus by demonizing the Planning Commission as the pro-development forces responsible for producing a ZOU catered to special interests. Some council members have even stated that they will “fix” the ZOU on April 14th and 15th and restore residents’ faith in the process. Two days is not adequate. Two days defies common sense. Fixing a complex 500 page document, seven years in the making and tailored to special interests, in just two days of deliberations, after ignoring resident input for these seven years, is impossible and frankly offensive to Santa Monica residents. The time for individuals to act is now. It’s time that residents once again take control, as we did last year when Residocracy organized and vetoed the City Council

ure focused on the future of the airport, saying it would cloud this issue with outside money and contention, as was the case during last year’s SMO ballot measures. They agreed with the city attorneys’ rejection of an Airport Commission-crafted emissions ordinance, which would have outlawed aircraft that don’t meet set emission standards. City attorneys doubted the ordinance would hold up in court and instead suggested that council direct city officials to negotiate better environmental standards with lessees who, for instance, sell fuel at the airport. The leases were the center of debate on Tuesday. Artists at the airport came out in large numbers, asking for stable, long-term leases. The Airport Commission had asked that all leases lengths remain month-to-month until the future of the airport is settled. City attorneys noted that litigation is ongoing and likely to continue. Councilmember Sue Himmelrich and Mayor Pro Tempore Tony Vazquez initially supported a motion that would have honored the commission’s recommendation but they found themselves in the minority. “I am concerned that we spent a long time building up these non-aviation tenants, including the cultural and arts uses, and including some of the valuable local businesses and, while I think the month-tomonth might be a nice symbolic gesture — I think it is indicative of our long-term aspirations for the airport — I don’t see it as doing anything really substantive,” said Councilmember Ted Winterer. “I think we run a much greater risk of driving away the tenancies we would like keep rather than the ones that we might not be inclined to preserve long-term.” Mayor Kevin McKeown suggested that the airport be viewed as three separate parcels governed by different and shifting rules. The non-aviation parcel, as council calls it, is south of Airport Avenue and was released from aviation use in 1984. Some aviation tenants have remained on that land because the soon-expiring 1984 agreement required a set amount of tie-down space airport-wide, McKeown said, and that land was the only place where they could stick it. “If we treat the non-aviation parcel after June 30 as being truly a non-aviation parcel, we can negotiate the leases we need to at

She also has roles in the Santa Monica-Malibu Education Foundation and Community for Excellent Public Schools.

The incoming trio joins a committee that also includes Gordon Lee, Cynthia Torres, Manual Sweetmore, Tom Larmore, Joan Krenik, Jon Kean, Paul Silvern and Shelly Slaugh Nahass. Board member Ralph Mechur took issue with the selection process, saying he would have liked to know who the other applicants were before considering the subcommittee’s recommendations.

market rate ... without having to be too concerned about whether that is equitable vis-àvis aviation uses on aviation land,” he said. “It’s a whole different situation.” City Hall will have greater control of the quitclaim parcel on the west side of the airport on July 1. “The quitclaim parcel is kind of in the middle of the two, in my mind, because while it is an aviation parcel, it is a parcel that we believe will be under our control sooner rather than later,” McKeown said, “and, to my mind, it wouldn’t make sense to enter into any long-term lease in any of the properties on that parcel. That, I would keep at month-to-month.” City Hall will have the least control over the parcel that was transferred in a 1948 agreement. “If we were to go to month-to-month we would lose some of the good things that are there and not really gain any benefit on the things that we may think are less desirable on that land,” McKeown said. “So it might make sense to go ahead and do the leases there.” Ultimately, council agreed to these basic premises. City officials will negotiate leases that may be longer for non-aviation tenants — like arts spaces and restaurants — on the non-aviation parcel. City officials will negotiate leases ending on July 1, 2018 on the 1948 parcel. Properties on the western parcel will stay month-to-month. All leases will go up to market rate, although the definition of market rate is apparently under dispute. Council also directed city officials to push for recreational uses to take over the nonaviation parcel as soon as possible. The two conflicting and oft-repeated idioms of the night were “throwing the baby out with bath water” and “kicking the can down the road.” Arts tenants, in particular, framed themselves as the “babies”, potentially having to close up shop thanks to tougher leasing policies meant to oust “bath water” aviation tenants. Staunch airport opponents framed nearinevitable litigation resulting from aggressive anti-airport measures as the can getting the boot. They claim that because City Hall has known about the expiring agreements for nearly three decades, they should have been ready to make bigger changes on July 1. dave@smdp.com
MEASURE ES MANAGER
The school district is moving forward in its search for a Measure ES bond program manager. The posting is open through the end of the month, according to SMMUSD Chief Financial Officer Jan Maez, but the district had already received 29 eligible applications as of March 19. An initial screening of applications yielded nine qualified candidates. “We’ve had a lot of interest in it,” Maez said. The district has enlisted Heery International, a professional services firm, to help with the management of Measure ES funds. The $385-million bond, which was approved by voters in 2012, will pay for facility and technology upgrades throughout the district. The school board, which last year approved about $34 million for the first phase of technological improvements, recently allocated $180 million for Santa Monica High School and $77 million for Malibu campuses. Roughly $93 million remains unallocated. jeff@smdp.com

The less development-friendly members split votes between three nominees: Nina Fresco, who was backed by Ted Winterer and Kevin McKeown, Mario Fonda-Bonardi, who was backed by Himmelrich, and Laurence Eubank, who Vazquez supported. Needing to reach four votes, Fresco and Rubin were renominated. Vazquez, was first to vote, switched to support Rubin and Rubin was successfully appointed. “I guess what kind of tipped it to me was I kind of agree with many of the folks in town that we need to do a better job of grooming new leadership and getting this new generation involved,” Vazquez said, “and here you have this young man who’s willing to step up and show that he can handle it. I’m not sure he can but I’m willing to give it a try. The fact that this appointment is only good for two months, I thought,‘Well, this is not a bad probation.’ Let’s see what happens.” Vazquez was 34 when he was elected to council for the first time in 1990 — the youngest member of the council at the time. “I feel I was able to hold my own but now, coming back here 20 years later, it’s a whole nother ball game,” he said. “There’s something to be said about having experience obviously.” Prior to the council vote, several members of the public pushed for council to appoint a younger candidate, mentioning specifically Rubin or Elizabeth Tooke. When asked by the Daily Press if he was watching the appointment — which occurred after midnight — or if he was surprised by Vazquez’s vote, Rubin declined to answer, directing the reporter to his Planning Commission application. “As a writer and board member of StreetsblogLA and Santa Monica Next, I’ve used the fourth estate to highlight key issues relating to sustainability, public health and mobility, and given readers the information they need to make informed decisions,” Rubin said in his application. “As a member of Los Angeles

Mayor Eric Garcetti’s staff, I helped lead the effort to launch the City’s open data portal, which shares financial, geographic, crime, transportation and other city service data with the public. As a Housing Commissioner, I’ve strived to connect with Santa Monicans on the issue of housing affordability. These experiences will shape my approach to my service as Planning Commissioner.” Rubin was born in Santa Monica and grew up in Brentwood. His first job was in Santa Monica at Earth Wind and Flour. He’s an avid bowler at Bayshore Lanes and he currently lives in Sunset Park. After months, the Planning Commission just finished reviewing an updated Zoning Ordinance, which will dictate land uses throughout the city for years to come. The ordinance will go to council next month and the Planning Commission will likely go back to reviewing specific project proposals. Rubin will be up for reappointment again after June 30, as will Chair Jason Parry and Commissioner Jim Ries. Commissioners Richard McKinnon and Gerda Newbold will be reconsidered a year after that. The Planning Commission is often seen as a stepping-stone to City Council. A majority of the current council served first on the Planning Commission. Three members of the commission ran for council last year.

■ Ranson IB Middle School in Charlotte, North Carolina, has a strict dress code (requiring, for example, only “hunter green” outerwear). Thus, on Jan. 27, when parent Chanda Spates dispatched her three kids in improperly hued coats, Ranson officials confiscated the “contraband” clothing, leaving the three (along with 20 other sartorial miscreants) to make their way home after classes with no outerwear at all -- though the temperature that afternoon was in the 30s.

Corrections was brutally assaulted in prison by a sexual predator and has sued the department, but in February the state attorney general’s office, contesting the lawsuit, told the judge, basically, that the teacher understood all along that she could get attacked in prison. She was administering inmates a GED exam, but that day had no guard support, not even one to hear her screams, and was given an emergency radio tuned to an unmonitored frequency. Nonetheless, Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Weisbard essentially shrugged: “The risk of harm, including assault, always exist(s) at a prison like Eyman.”

This year you are like a ball of energy. At times you might seem a bit out of control, but you’ll remain determined to accomplish what you want. You have a strong sense of direction. Be careful, as your words could become sharp or sarcastic when dealing with others. Take frequent breaks. If you are single, many people express interest in you. Take the time to evaluate who would be best for you. If you are attached, your sweetie probably has seen you through periods like this. Nevertheless, make a concerted effort to spend quality one-on-one time together. CANCER tends to drag you down.
